Rivaura Estate Vineyards & Winery 2018 Grenache

Rivaura Estate Vineyards & Winery 2018 Grenache


This Grenache from Idaho's Lewis-Clark Valley was aged in all neutral French oak letting the fruit shine bright and fresh, but it's still nicely structured and complex. On the nose, aromas of raspberry jam mix beautifully with notes of lavender, sweet dried herbs and clove potpourri. On the palate, flavors alluding to raspberry sauce are elevated with notes of orange zest before silky tannins join the mix, delivering notes of chocolate and hints of earthy clay dust on a polished finish.
